if i backup my old torch on BES (full backup with email) do i just restore that backup onto my new torch? even if the new torch will already be activated on the BES? will my restore mess up that BES activation? and will everything transfer over, apps, app data, personal email, and settings?
Use the device switch wizard with your old torch connected to your computer and the bes service. Works everytime for me. Have a storm and switched from 8830 with no problem. Contacts, calendar everything worked fine. The only issue was the 3rd party apps for the old device, of course didn't work. But that won't be a problem for you.
When I switched from S1 to S2, went smoothly for everything.

I think the OP is exchanging the devices so they would have to use the Back-up wizard.

Be sure you do the backup/restore from your desktop (BES) as opposed to your home computer (not BES). If the former, you probably won't need to reactivate, new password, etc. If the latter however, you will.
